dilemma!

Okay, so on Tuesday, I mentioned that I had to clean out my cabinets because pest control was coming through my building to spray for mice. Ugh, yes.

When I got home from work, I found a note from the fumigator (is that a word?) saying that he had partially sprayed, but not completely, because I hadn't emptied one of my cabinets. The cabinet I didn't clear out is one I rarely use. There are about four things in there. The reason I don't use it is because it's at the base of this built-into-the wall cabinet, and the door sticks, and it nearly impossible to open, so its not worth the struggle. Apparently it needed to be sprayed too though.

I left my cabinets empty, assuming they'd return on Wednesday to finish the job. I was wrong. I got home from work last night and nothing had been touched. Booo. I just called the management office and the fumigator only comes on Tuesdays. So he'll be back next week. He wants to spray again, since he missed parts.

So the question is. Do I put everything back in the cabinets until Monday and then remove it again? Or, keep the cabinets empty, saving myself the task of putting away-emptying-putting away again?

What would you do?

I would keep the cabinets empty because I'm lazy like that. :)

I think it would be better just to leave everything out that way you're not doubling your annoyance load. :)

I agree with the other posts...but I'm actually writing you about something else...my husband and I live in Albania for 8mos a year serving as houseparents at an international bible school. I read where you support 2 girls in Albania and wondered where they live. World Vision sends kids to a camp that is also where the bible school resides and it would be fun to connect with "your" girls if possible. You can write me at: BobLindaO@aol.com
PS..love your posts! I think we'd have a great chat over a latte somewhere, sometime??

I would leave everything out as well. It's too much work to put it back and then pull it right out again.

just leave everything out becuase it would suck putting everything back in then taking out then back in!
